Plated steel

Abstract

This plated steel includes: a steel; and a plating layer formed on the steel, in which the plating layer contains, as a chemical composition, by mass %, Zn: 1.0% to 30.0%, Mg: 0% to 10.0%, Si: 0.05% to 10.0%, Fe: 0 to 10.0%, 0% to 5.00% in total of one or two or more selected from Ca: 0% to 3.00%, Sb: 0% to 0.50%, Pb: 0% to 0.50%, Sr: 0% to 0.50%, Sn: 0% to 1.00%, Cu: 0% to 1.00%, Ti: 0% to 1.00%, Ni: 0% to 1.00%, Mn: 0% to 1.00%, Cr: 0% to 1.00%, La: 0% to 1.00%, Ce: 0% to 1.00%, Zr: 0% to 1.00%, and Hf: 0% to 1.00%, and a remainder of Al and impurities, a microstructure of the plating layer contains an α phase which is a solid solution of Al and Zn, and the α phase contains a Zn phase having a grain size of 10 to 200 nm in a number density of 10/100 μm2 or more.
